Tony,
FTR, I didn't mean to imply there was anything wrong with the 2i2. It works. Audio goes in and out with good quality.

I just wish I had known the limitations before buying. I'd have spent a little more if I did, so I mentioned it.
For example, you can't pan an incoming audio signal. It goes where it goes depending on the connection used on the 2i2. (L/R/Center)
I'm used to being able to set the incoming vocal, guitar (or whatever) where I want it as I record. With the 2i2 I have to record first, then I can pan.
At least that's how it works here because it doesn't include the Focusrite mixer applet (I think it's the only one that doesn't!).

Like you said; hardware solves it quickly; the computer doesn't have to generate instant sound. This is truly the most reliable solution, but then I can't use all this software stuff I bought!
When playing live I always use hardware if any way possible (or convert to audio).
In the studio I'm more flexible.
